The two world leaders say dialogue is 'good' as the pair sit down for a 'social dinner' in Vietnam as part of their second summit.
"And I think that you will have a tremendous future with your country and I look forward to watching it happen and helping it to happen."Mr Kim appeared to have been counting the days since the two leaders met.
The pair then headed to what was billed as a"social dinner" at the Metropole Hotel, where they appeared in good spirits as they and their accompanying aides sat around a table.The White House later released a short transcript of what was said at the dinner.Mr Trump added:"Boy, if you could have heard that dialogue, what you would pay for that dialogue. It was good.
The Associated Press reported that four journalists - including one of its own - were stopped from covering the beginning of the dinner. Since their meeting in Singapore, they have exchanged several letters via envoys on a semi-regular basis. Mr Trump said last year that he and Mr Kim"fell in love".Despite that, little progress has been made towards the process of denuclearisation, which both leaders agreed to work towards in Singapore.
